This morning serves us up some Gossip Girl meta-theater. Rumors on the set of GG are that Blake Lively is "glowing," which is Hollywoodese for "Lookit, there might be a baby in that person." A source from the show adds, "Blake is usually really careful about what she eats, but since her wedding, she seems to be eating a lot more. Everyone on set is on bump-watch."

Of course, this would make for primo scandal, or whatever, because she just married Ryan Reynolds like two seconds ago. (By the way, one good alternate definition of "scandal" is "something most people give 0.00 fucks about.") Lively's rep did not respond to emails last night, and there is no further proof at the moment that any animal, vegetable or mineral has signed a utilities-included lease to sublet her womb for 9 months.

After an on-and-off summer romance with John Mayer, Katy Perry, said to have been inspired by Elizabeth Gilbert'sEat Pray Love (or by Julia Roberts making a weird ferret face and nomming on some plastic on the ubiquitous movie poster), has gallivanted off to an undisclosed location for a "spiritual quest." And one that is far away from cupcake bras and dudes, if you examine the absence of "love" in the following Tweet.

Other Tweets let us know that she is meditating and "getting some shit out [her] chakra's." I thought that's what Twitter was for. [Twitter, Daily Mail]

I am doing amazing. I am retired as an actor. I am moving to New York to launch my career. I am going to do a fashion line. I am not talking about being arrested for DUI because I don't drink, and I don't drink and drive. It is all false.

Also included: the details of Bynes' getting kicked out of a spin class at Equinox on Tuesday for acting weird. ("Amanda stopped to take her T-shirt off, revealing only a tiny, black, strapless push-up bra – not a sports bra.") [People]

She's very sweet, we enjoyed working together... You just never know what people have going on in their personal lives. I think that people should stop being so judgmental. I just wish her the best and hope she pulls it together - she's so talented, I don't know, all I can say is I wish her the best.

LiLo maintains that she wasn't drunk when she whacked into a guy with her Porsche on her way from a Slash concert. If you were gonna lie about one part of that sentence, wouldn't you lie about the Slash concert? [TMZ]

New details have been released regarding Monica Lewinsky's $12 million tell-all about her burgeoning Bedazzled dog collar empire. JK, it's obviously about Bill Clinton.

Although she spent the last few decades "protecting [Clinton], a "vengeful" Monica Lewinsky is out for blood and preparing to spill all of the details (that is, anything that was possibly left out of the Starr Report—which, from this reader's perspective, certainly seems MORE than comprehensive). As such, the book will feature sordid tales of Clinton's "insatiable desire for three-way sex, orgies," raindrops on roses, whiskers on kittens, warm woolen mittens, and "sex toys of all kinds." In it, Clinton allegedly refers to Hillary as "a cold fish." [National Enquirer]

Like the hustler she is, Jennifer Hudson did a surprise performance of an Aretha Franklin song at Hearst's 125th anniversary bash and then told the crowd it was her goal to portray Franklin in a movie someday.
